Growth of mature caged Sargassum polycystum fronds from MPAs and non-MPAs when reciprocally transplanted

<p>Raw data on the growth of mature <em>Sargassum polycystum</em> fronds originated from marine protected and non-protected areas (MPAs and non-MPAs, respectively) in Fiji, reciprocally transplanted between these areas and protected by cages. Growth was measured as the difference between the final (30 days) and initial frond length, measured from a standard point established using a thread when the experiment was set.
